Chapter 1: Get Acquainted

verview of FeaturesThe OptiFiber® Pro Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) module attaches to a Versiv™ main unit to make a rugged, hand-held tester that lets you locate, identify, and measure reflective and loss events in multimode and singlemode fibers. Typical maximum test ranges are 35 km maximum at 1300 nm for multimode fiber and 130 km maximum at 1550 nm for singlemode fiber. The tester includes these features:

Automatic analysis of OTDR traces and events helps you identify and locate faults on multimode (850 nm and 1300 nm; 50 µm and 62.5 µm) and singlemode (1310 nm and 1550 nm) fiber.

Shows OTDR results as an intuitive map of events, a table of events, and an OTDR trace.

Gives a PASS or FAIL result based on a test limit that you specify.

1

“Document Only” test limit is available if PASS/FAIL results are not necessary.

Touchscreen lets you quickly navigate through different views of the results and see more information about events.

DataCenter OTDR™ test gives optimal performance when you do tests on fiber installations that have short links, many connections, and possibly large reflections.

FaultMap™ test lets you make maps of your cable plant, see patch cords as short as 0.5 m, and see events that have poor reflectance.

Visual fault locator helps you verify the continuity of fibers and locate faults in fibers and connectors.

Chapter 1: Get AcquaintedSafety Information

WarningTo prevent possible fire, electric shock, or personal injury:

Read all safety information before you use the Product.

Carefully read all instructions.

Do not open the case. You cannot repair or replace parts in the case.

Do not modify the Product.

Use only replacement parts that are approved by Fluke Networks.

Do not touch voltages > 30 V AC rms, 42 V AC peak, or 60 V AC.

Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor, or in damp or wet environments.

Use this Product indoors only.

Use the Product only as specified, or the protection supplied by the Product can be compromised.

Do not use and disable the Product if it is damaged.

3

Do not use the Product if it operates incorrectly.

Batteries contain hazardous chemicals that can cause burns or explode. If exposure to chemicals occurs, clean with water and get medical aid.

Remove the batteries if the Product is not used for an extended period of time, or if stored in temperatures above 50 °C. If the batteries are not removed, battery leakage can damage the Product.

The battery door must be closed and locked before you operate the Product.

Repair the Product before use if the battery leaks.

Recharge the batteries when the low battery indicator shows to prevent incorrect measurements.


4

Do not disassemble or crush battery cells and battery packs.

Do not put battery cells and battery packs near heat or fire. Do not put in sunlight.

Have an approved technician repair the Product.

For Products with rechargeable batteries, use only AC adapters approved by Fluke Networks for use with the Product to supply power to the Product and charge the battery.

Warning: Class 1 and Class 2 Laser ProductsTo prevent possible eye damage caused by hazardous radiation:

Do not look directly into optical connectors. Some optical equipment emits invisible radiation that can cause permanent damage to your eyes.

Keep the module’s OUTPUT ports covered with a dust cap or keep a test reference cord attached. The OUTPUT ports can emit radiation even when you do not do a test.

When you inspect fiber endfaces, use only magnification devices that have the correct filters.

Use the Product only as specified or hazardous laser
radiation exposure can occur.
CautionTo prevent damage to the tester or cables under test and to prevent data loss:

Do not connect the OTDR port to an optical source. Doing so can cause damage to the OTDR receiver.

Do not connect the tester to an active network. Doing so causes unreliable test results, can disrupt network operations, and can cause damage to the OTDR receiver.

Chapter 1: Get AcquaintedSafety Information

Do not touch reflective surfaces (such as metal) to the end of a fiber cable connected to the OTDR when the OTDR is operating. An open fiber connector endface has about a 4% reflection. Holding a reflective surface near the connector endface can cause more than a 4% reflection, which can damage the photodetector in the OTDR.

Use proper cleaning procedures to clean all fiber connectors before every use. Neglecting this step or using improper procedures can cause unreliable test results and may permanently damage the connectors. See Chapter 2.

Use a video probe to periodically inspect the OTDR connectors for scratches and other damage.

Read the instructions for splice machines before using the OTDR to monitor splicing procedures. The OTDR can interfere with the light injection detection techniques used by some splicers.

To prevent unreliable test results, connect the AC adapter or replace the battery as soon as the low battery indication appears.

Do not remove the USB flash drive while the LED on

the drive flashes. Doing so can corrupt the data on the drive.

You can lose a USB flash drive, cause damage to it, or accidentally erase the contents of the drive. Thus, Fluke Networks recommends that you save no more than one day of test results on a flash drive.

You can use the CABLE ID SETUP screen to make a set of sequential IDs. The tester uses the IDs in sequence as the names for the results you save. When Auto Save is on, the tester automatically saves each result with the next available ID in the set. .

A cable ID set also lets you use IDs again so you can add different results to tests you saved before.

You can enter an ID each time you do a test. To do this, turn off the Auto Save function (see page 22). Each time a test is completed, tap SAVE (if the test passed) or FIX LATER (if the test failed), then enter an ID manually.

You can use LinkWare software to make a set of IDs, download the set to the tester, then import it into a project.

After you do a test, you can enter the ID for a test you saved before. This lets you replace results or add different results to a test you saved before.

If the test failed before, and you saved the results, you can select it on the RESULTS screen, then press TEST AGAIN to replace the results for that ID.

NotesCable IDs are case-sensitive. For example, the

21

tester saves result with the names “A0” and “a0” in two different records.

A cable ID can have a maximum of 60 characters.

If you delete all the ID sets in a project, the tester makes a default set that starts with 001.

ys clean and inspect the endfaces in fiber connectors before ake connections. Fluke Networks recommends that you use

chanical device, such as the Fluke Networks IBC OneClick ner, to clean connectors. If you do not have such a device, or device does not clean the connector sufficiently, use other al-grade supplies to clean connectors.

re 9 shows the equipment you use to clean and inspect fiber aces.

WarningTo prevent possible eye damage caused by hazardous radiation:

Do not look directly into optical connectors. Some optical equipment emits invisible radiation that can cause permanent damage your eyes.

Before you clean an endface, turn off any optical sources (laser or LED) that are connected to the fiber.

When you inspect endfaces, use only magnification devices that have the correct filters.

CautionTo prevent damage to connectors and to keep contamination off of endfaces:

Always cover unused connectors and adapters with
protective caps.
Always keep unused protective caps in a clean, sealed container to prevent contamination.

o Clean the Optical Connectors on the Modules

To clean the optical connectors on the modules, first use the procedure given under “To Clean Bulkhead Connectors”.

If a connector is very dirty or the procedure above does not make it clean, use this procedure:

1 Unscrew the adapter on the connector.

2 Clean the ferrule with a dry, optical-grade wipe made for fiber optic connectors.

3 Use a video probe to inspect the connector. If necessary, clean and inspect the connector again.

4 If the endface is very dirty, use a wipe that is moist with optical-grade solvent to clean the endface. Dry the ferrule with a dry wipe.

NoteIf the OTDR Port Connection Quality gauge stays in the Poor range after you clean the OTDR connector, remove the adapter from the module and inspect the adapter for damage. Make sure that the white plastic ring inside the center tube shows no damage.

e When you turn on the tester, the Test Type shows the test that was last selected.

Auto OTDR: The tester automatically selects settings that give you the best view of the events on the cabling. This mode is the easiest to use and is the best choice for most applications. To see the settings the tester used for an Auto OTDR test, tap SETTINGS on the trace screen.

NoteSome unusual faults can cause the Auto OTDR test to show an unsatisfactory trace. If this occurs, use the Manual OTDR test to get a better trace.

Manual OTDR: This mode lets you select settings to control the qualities of the trace.

DataCenter OTDR: This test is optimized for fiber installations that have short links, many connections, and the possibility of large reflections.

NotesBy default, the DataCenter OTDR test uses 850 nm for multimode fiber and 1310 nm for singlemode fiber. These are the wavelengths typically used in data centers. You can select other wavelengths if necessary.
You must use launch compensation when you do a DataCenter OTDR test.

Chapter 3: The OTDRAbout Launch and Tail Cords

CautionFor tests on cabling that has angled physical contact (APC) connectors, use only launch/tail cords that have APC connectors at the ends connected to the cabling. Other connector types cause large reflections that can cause unreliable test results.

NotesDo not use hybrid patch cords to connect the launch or tail cords to the cabling under test. Use launch and tail cords with the correct connectors to connect directly to the cabling under test. This gives the best measurement of the first and last connectors in the link. Launch and tail cords with different types of connectors are available from Fluke Networks.

Launch + Tail compensation usually gives the most accurate measurements.

How to set up the launch compensation function

1 Select launch and tail cords that have the same type of fiber as the fiber you will test.

Chapter 3: The OTDROTDR Port Connection Quality

TDR Port Connection QualityWhen you do an OTDR test, the test shows the quality of the OTDR port connection (Figure 11). If a test takes more than approximately 3 seconds, the PROGRESS screen also shows a preview of the OTDR trace. The trace is black for one wavelength and blue for the other wavelength.

If the gauge is not in the Good range

Clean the OTDR port and the fiber connector. Use a video probe to inspect the endfaces in the port and fiber connector for scratches and other damage. If an endface on the tester shows damage, contact Fluke Networks for service information.

If the gauge stays outside the Good range, remove the adapter from the module and inspect the adapter for damage. Make sure that the white plastic ring inside the center tube shows no damage.

A poor OTDR connection increases the dead zone at the connector. The dead zone can hide faults that are near the OTDR connector.

A poor connection also decreases the strength of the signal from

41

the OTDR. The weaker signal causes more noise on the trace, which can cause the OTDR to miss events. It also decreases the dynamic range.

When the test is completed, the quality gauge shows in the details for the OTDR Port event on the EventMap screens. The tester includes the gauge with the test results you save.

Chapter 4: The FaultMap Test

The FaultMap test helps you record the connections in a fiber link and identify bad connections. It can show short patch cords and find connections that have high reflectance. The FaultMap test gives you these results:

Shows a map of the connectors in the link that possibly do not show on the OTDR EventMap. The map includes connectors that are hidden in the dead zones made by previous events. The FaultMap test shows patch cords as short as 0.5 m for lengths < 2 km.

Shows connections that are poor because they have high reflectance (> -35 dB).

Reflective events that are apparently not connectors do not show on the FaultMap diagram. Loss events are also not shown.

The FaultMap test finds events that have a reflectance larger than approximately -50 dB on multimode fiber and -60 dB on singlemode fiber. (More negative values mean less reflectance and a better connection. For example, a connector with a

57

reflectance of -40 dB is better than one with -35 dB.)

NotesSince the FaultMap test finds only reflections, do not use it to look for fusion splices or angled physical contact (APC) connectors.

FaultMap results do not include a PASS/FAIL status. The results are only for your documentation of the link.

FaultMap tests on singlemode fiber usually take more time than OTDR tests. The test uses very narrow pulses on singlemode fiber to make the smallest event dead zones possible, and does more analysis on the reflections in the link.

Chapter 8: Projects

hy Use Projects?The tester’s ProjeX™ management system lets you set up projects that help you monitor the status of a job and make sure that your work agrees with the requirements of the job.

You can use a project to do these tasks:

Specify the tests that are necessary for a job.

Specify settings for tests.

Specify an operator for the job.

Make sets of sequential IDs to use as names for test results.

Automatically save test results with IDs from a set.

Add the results from other necessary tests to each saved result in the project.

See which IDs do not have results for a specified test.

See what percentage of a job is completed.

83

See how many links passed and how many failed.

Keep the test results from a job in one place for easy access.

When you use a project, you can do tests and use IDs that are not specified in the project if necessary. You can also easily change the settings in a project if necessary.

NoteIt is not necessary to install a module to set up a project for the module. The tester keeps all settings in the main Versiv unit.

When you make cable ID sets, you set up these items for the project (see Figure 30):

Sets of IDs to use when you save test results. For example, you can make one set of IDs for singlemode fibers and another for multimode fibers. Usually, the IDs are the same as the IDs of the cables in the installation.

Specify the tests to do for each ID. As you use the project, the tester shows the percentage of the necessary tests you have completed. It also shows the IDs that do not have results for each test.

Each project can have up to 5000 IDs. If an ID set does not have a Last ID, the tester counts the set as one ID. An ID can have a maximum of 60 characters. Symbols, such as the asterisk, and accented characters do not increment.

or above +50 oC (+122 oF) for periods longer than one week.

Before you put a battery into storage, charge it to approximately 50 % of full charge.

tore the Tester Before you store a tester or an extra battery for a long period,

charge the battery to approximately 50 % of full charge. The discharge rate of the battery is 5 % to 10 % each month. Check the battery every 4 months and charge it if necessary.

Keep a battery attached to the tester during storage. If you remove the battery for more than approximately 24 hours, the tester will not keep the correct time and date.

See “Environmental and Regulatory Specifications” on page 105 for storage temperatures.

Chapter 9: MaintenanceIf the Tester Does Not Operate as Usual

f the Tester Does Not Operate as UsualIf the tester does not operate as usual or if it shows an unusual message, see Table 3 for possible explanations and solutions to some conditions that can occur.

If the condition continues, contact Fluke Networks for assistance, or search the Fluke Networks Knowledge Base for a solution.

If you contact Fluke Networks, have available the serial number, software and hardware versions, and calibration date for the tester, if possible. To see this information, tap the TOOLS icon on the home screen, then tap Version Information.

You can also use LinkWare software to upload the system log from the tester. This file contains information that can possibly help Fluke Networks find a solution to an unusual problem.

Table 3. Possible Solutions for Unusual Behavior

The touchscreen or the keys do not respond.

Press and hold until the tester turns off. Then turn on the tester. If the problem continues, install the latest version of software in the tester.

The tester will not turn on even though the battery is charged.

101

The safety switch or the fuse in the battery is possibly open. Wait a few seconds, then try again. If the tester does not turn on, the battery is possibly bad and must be replaced. The tester can operate on AC power if the battery does not operate.

The OTDR Port Connection Quality gauge is not in the “Good” range.

The fiber endface in the OTDR connector is possibly dirty or damaged. Clean the connector and inspect the endface with a video probe. If an endface is damaged, contact Fluke Networks for service information.

Remove the fiber adapter from the module and inspect the adapter for damage. Make sure that the white plastic ring inside the center tube shows no damage.

Chapter 10: SpecificationsInternal Memory for Test Results

nternal Memory for Test ResultsTypical capacity for the internal memory is approximately 2000 OTDR tests on fiber links with an average length of 2 km, and up to 5000 tests for lengths less than 2 km. The capacity available for test results depends on the space used by the software and custom test limits in the tester.

The number of test records you can save decreases if you save more tests in each record, or if you save tests that use more memory. For example, OTDR results for long fibers use more memory than results for shorter fibers. Records that include OTDR tests and FiberInspector images use more memory than records that include OTDR tests and FaultMap tests.

SB Flash DriveYou can upload test results to a USB flash drive to make more internal memory available.
